very nice tank. how are you addeing calcuim with a reactor or doseing? iam starting a 20 gallon myself after the holidays.what kind of filter a hob or wet dry and what is your lighting?
a little info on the tank: mixed reef
20 gal high with 130w pc's ( 1 10k & 1 50/50 )
hob aquaclear filter , hob skimmer with carbon added
i top off 3cups of kalkwasser mixed at 1tbs to 1 gal rodi daily and water changes of 4 gal once a month.
this tank suffered a crash on 2/14/07 due tothe ice storm we had in monmouth county. no lights, filtration or heat for 60 hrs and the tank temp went as low as 40*f .
a lot of corals and fish were lost but i managed to save some with lots of love and special attention.
this tank has been up and running for at least 6 years and started as a fowlr then turned in to a small but packed mixed reef
occupants at this time are : (1) percula clown,(1) bi-collered blenny,(1) 6 line wrass, (12-15) assorted hermits and snails,(1) pistol shrimp
assorted mushroom,zoas,giant green palys, devils hand leather, kenya tree, cabbage leather,gsp,monti cap: green,orange and purple, monti digi: green & orange, orange crusting monti, purple nana, tan elk horn, green and red blastos,green candy cane, and a pink and blue chalice
